Description:

p. 1 At the base of the low angled buttress is a 6 foot high ledge with a bolt above it. Make the mantle (5.7), clip the bolt, and make a move up and left. Wander up the slabs to a belay at an old piton (thread and tricam nearby) where the angle increases.
p. 2 Wander your way up the steeper wall, weaving left and right across the blunt nose. Aim for the beautiful white flake on the left side of the prow to finish. When in doubt, usually go right. There's some committing moves above your gear, harder if short.
